State Legislative District Data Analytics -- ACS 2014 Economic Characteristics
January 2016. The importance of understanding the demographic-economic make-up and patterns for state legislative districts can hardly be overstated. Community and neighborhood challenges and opportunities are shaped by demographic-economic dynamics. Legislative district incumbents and stakeholders need this information to assess conditions and plan to meet the needs of residents. Only by knowing "where we are" can we develop the most effective plans for improvement. Use the GIS project to examine state legislative districts in context of neighborhoods and small area socioeconomic patterns (details below). Economic Characteristics State legislative districts are diverse; they range in median household income from $19,227 to $172,008. The mean travel time to work ranges from 19.5 to 48.5 minutes.

State Legislative Districts State legislative districts are the areas from which members are elected to state or equivalent entity legislatures. State legislative districts are comprised of upper (senate) and lower (house) chambers. Nebraska has a unicameral legislature and the District of Columbia has a single council; these are treated as upper-chamber legislative areas in the interactive table.
